The Orioles are still talking to Nate McLouth and remain optimistic about the ability to re-sign the free agent outfielder. McLouth impressed down the stretch for the O's, hitting .268/.342/.435 with seven homers, 18 RBI and 12 stolen bases in 55 games. He then hit .308 (8-for-26) with a homer, five RBI and three swipes during their postseason run. The 31-year-old outfielder has publicly expressed a desire to return to the Orioles as well.
